IF is realized by successively\ntransferring information from a mobile node to other nodes in an epidemic manner\nwith wireless direct communication in designated areas. IF has many potential applications,\nsuch as advertisements for local communities, specific communication for disasters, alert\nsystems for pedestrians and vehicles, and so on. To design alert systems on a road, some\narticles theoretically analyze the mean lifetime of the floating in a one-dimensional street.\nIn past researches, however, identical traffic volume and velocity were assumed in all the\nlanes. The difference in traffic volume between lanes and the correlation between traffic\nvolume and velocity were omitted for simplicity. In this paper, we recognize the importance\nof these two factors and reveal their effects on the mean lifetime of IF with a new theoretical\nmethod. In it, we consider not only the effects of the above two factors but also the\ncomplicated features of IF that were ignored in previous methods.}, pages = {97--113}, title = {Information floating on a road with different traffic volumes between opposite lanes}, volume = {3}, year = {2016, 2016} }
